Last day of vacation continued

I continued on to Southaven, MS to visit my beautiful nieces. Unfortunately, I had to cut my visit short and didn't get to see my nephews. These are my sister's beautiful children and grandchildren who I love dearly. I haven't seen them in over a year and it had been some time since I had gotten to just sit and visit. My sister is so truly blessed with children who love her and stand beside her in all things. I love all these beautiful girls as if they were my own. My sister, Judy and I have a beautiful relationship. We are not just sisters, we are best friends. If I do nothing else, I have made myself this promise, to do my best and not let so much time pass before I can do this again. Life is just to short to be away for those you love.

Last day of my vacation

As I was traveling back to Oklahoma, I decided to make a quick stop in Covington, TN to see aunts, uncles, and cousins that I haven't seen in approximately 10 years. I went to my Aunt Nette's house and my cousin, Nancy, fixed a big pot of Taco Soup. Boy was that yummy. Aunt Nette had a cherry cheese cake for dessert. As you can tell, I sure needed all of that. It was such a wonderful visit. I got to see Uncle Coy and Uncle Haskin. My cousins Paul, Allan, Nancy, Kate, Ella & Lucy. Precious sweet Kate, wanted a picture with her Aunt Jill. She is such a beautiful woman. I read her blog and she inspires me with her words. She writes so beautifully and I hope someday she will write us a book. Kate, you have a beautiful heart. Paul and Nancy, you have raised a most wonderful daughter. Ya'll are truly blessed.

What a wonderful vacation!!

Wow, I finally got to leave my home and actually travel somewhere and guess what I did it all by myself!!! I first traveled to Clarksville, TN to see my beautiful, wonderful, sweet sister. I just love her so much. It had been two years since we had been able to be with one another. I left on a Friday morning and didn't leave until Tuesday coming back home. Believe me, I sure could have stayed longer. Thanks sis, for making me feel so at home. Oh yea, thanks to Mike, for putting up with all those days. I love him lots, too. He's my favorite brother-in-law.

Adisyn, up to her usual shenanigans. We are so thankful it wasn't permanent marker!

My grandchildren relaxing at my house. Wonder why each one is with dog?????

Well, I know I haven't updated my blog for awhile, but as in the life of Jill, it's always something! First, my computer crashed and I lost all my pictures, then my internet was down for over a week due to a malfunction in the wiring. It took the people forever to find the problem. Needless to say, I was about to come unglued!!! I know ya'll can't imagine that happening to me.
